^ There should be a Mt here to properly render in html

I just picked one in the middle of this commit. In general every mail on any
manpage Mt should be used.

Sure. Feel free to go over our manpages and fix them. It's a minor issue.

And while we're on the subject, there's a bit of background to this commit.
Back in 2012 I started fixing mandoc lint errors/warnings in our manpage
collection (excluding stuff from contrib/ and gnu/ etc.). I think I got them
down from around ~4000 issues to almost zero. Quite a few manpages didn't
even work with mandoc at the time, due to how many syntactical mdoc errors they had. The situation is still good, but I re-ran my scripts yesterday and found a slew of new warnings. I fixed a few obvious ones, but if someone with more time on his hands wants to help, please go ahead. A good starting point
would probably the netmap.4 or ctl.conf.5 manpages, they seem to generate
quite a few warnings.

I'd also be grateful if everyone ran mandoc -Tlint on their manpages before
committing. :-)


A commit hook does magic for these kind of things. ;-)
